GABRIEL MORENO & THE QUIVERING POETS (virtuoso Richard Moore on violin and Juampi Mauro on Argentinian bass) return to the Green Note with new songs and poems from Nights In the Belly of Bohemia, plus some old favourites.
Currently based in London, Gibraltarian Moreno is an irresistibly engaging performer. He combines a latin exuberance and passion with a rare lyrical calibre (he is also an accomplished poet, with 12 books published to date). He has thrilled audiences across South America, the USA and Europe, including recent sets at UK festivals Wilderness, The Great British Folk Festival, Malmesbury Roots and Folk Festival, Costa Folk Festival, Gibraltar Music Festival, ELY folk Festival, Broadstairs Folk Festival, Rochester Sweeps Festival and Purbeck Valley Folk Festival, and has been championed by the likes of BBC 6 Music’s Cerys Matthews.
Moreno’s unique artistic voice lies in the meeting and fusion of different identities. Born and raised in Gibraltar, a British territory bordering southern Spain and just 8 miles from Africa, he has since lived and performed across the world, absorbing influences from music, literature and art everywhere he went. He was previously the longtime curator and host of the legendary Lantern Society folk club, and in 2022 was awarded the title of Cultural Ambassador of Gibraltar.
Moreno has written six albums since 2015, all which have been received with acclaim by Roots publications in the UK scene. 2025 saw the release of his sixth album, ‘Nights in the Belly of Bohemia,’ with an accompanying packed touring schedule across Europe, and a thirteenth book of poetry, entitled ‘Gibraltar.’
